Once again, you fail to understand that conservative views and perspectives are the norm and are already always represented in active and passive ways in video games and the wider culture.

It feels like you’re framing the situation in a light that isn’t exactly true to reality, whether you realize it or not. You’re acting as if “conservative views” are an identity qualifier like race, gender, or sexuality. If you chose to have conservative views then you’re choosing the consequences that follow, that is…

You’re confusing Liberal for Democrat. The Democratic party is absolutely flawed, but the difference is Liberals aren’t bootlickers. I - and many others - are displeased with a lot of what Biden & Harris do and we’ll say it. All the “never-Trumpers” in 2015 & 2016 are among the worst offenders to this day; Cruz,…

It’s always interesting that folks tell on themselves when conservatism comes up. “I get not tolerating bigotry but” didn’t need a “but”. Acknowledging the time that we live in and not giving into hateful positions doesn’t have to be a liberal position, but it’s always interesting that people find it so, because it…

Okay well, then feel free to read my reply as “failing to understand that conservative views and perspectives are the norm and are already always represented in active and passive ways in video games and the wider culture.”

My point is exactly the same, regardless of your rather telling fulminations against *ahem*…

Once again, conservatives failing to understand that their views and perspectives are the norm and are already always represented in active and passive ways in video games and the wider culture.

Conservatism encompasses a wide range of ideas and beliefs, yet in Gawker circles it is synonymous with Nazis/Fascism/white supremacy etc. Thing is, in real life, not all conservatives are morally bankrupt.

Pretty sure the vast majority of liberal views expressed on this site is that women/poc/trans/queer folk are people and deserve respect and equality across the industry and fandom space. The fact that trump and trumpian politicians get made fun of or gamergate is outright rejected is a facet of that philosophy, as…

Aziz didn’t deserve what happened to him, the woman he was with willingly participated in a sex act and then called him a rapist. She had a terrible date and I’m genuinely sorry she feels that awful about it, but it wasn’t criminal.

There’s plenty of conservative posts on this site. Maybe the problem is you can’t identify conservative content anymore because you’re not actually a normal conservative?

People looking for political debate are on the wrong website. Yes, this site skews left but not egregiously so, in fact far less than many news organizations. We can discuss issues through the frame of the games we’re talking about, and through the viewpoints of the writing staff here. For example Ash is one of my…

Again, I am not going to get into a specific political discussion because that is not my point.

You need to define conservatism. Standard right of center conservatism is no more. Lower taxes, smaller government and laissez-faire don’t cut it anymore.

I mean, you’re replying to me and I’ve gone out of my way to try and be patient, polite, and clear in my writing, but you’ve largely just ignored my main points here and refused to explain what you actually mean. I’m not really sure what to say at this point so, good bye, I guess.

I see what you’re saying, but it’s important to remember that US politics are skewed far to the right compared most of the rest of the world. Here’s a quick article on it if you’re unfamiliar:

“What you and the author, in my opinion, are really trying to say is that you want Kotaku to be a far-left progressive activist blog through the lens of video games”

Which particular conservative views do you want to see positively reported on here?

Bros having too many feels. LOL!

Cops need to be held responsible for the deaths they cause, when they are the clear instigator. Period.
